The obstacle is the path.
--Zen Proverb
"Loneliness is as good as darkness, mainly when one knows that, opening the eyes, there is light on the other side".
In the land of the deaf
The one eared man gets the glasses
--Confucius' brother
In a mad world, only the mad are sane.
-- Akira Kurosawa
So many gods, so many creeds, So many paths that wind and wind, While just
the art of being kind is all the sad world needs.
---Ella Wheeler Wilcox, poet (1850-1919)
There is one single consciousness, and an infinite number of minds, and in each mind an infinite number of thoughts and each thought an infinite number of values. There is an infinite number of truths to be known that are relative and only one absolute truth of infinity. It is never to be found outside of one's self
"When I see I am nothing,
that is wisdom.
When I see I am everything,
that is love.
And between these two,
my life flows."
'The mind that does not understand is the Buddha. There is no other'

Tue, January 22, 2008 - 10:23 PM“Man is by nature a lover. Only he has yet to discover the real thing to love. This quest awakens him to the fulfillment of his real Self.” – Sri Chinmoy (1931-2007)
“We are all meant to be mothers of God, for God is always needing to be born.” - Meister Eckhart
"A human being is part of a whole, called by us the 'Universe' a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty." Albert Einstein (1879 – 1955)
“The truth is like a lion. You don’t have to defend it. Let it loose. It will defend itself.” – St. Augustine
"Certain things catch your eye, but pursue only those that capture your heart." ~ Old Indian saying
“The secret of life is this: to produce beauty in ourselves. When beauty is produced in the heart, then all that breaks the heart vanishes and the whole universe becomes one single vision of the sublimity of God.” - Hazrat Inayat Khan -
